    Souveran Shelf Life

    I have a jar of Pinnacle Souveran in my garage now for about 4 years, its AZ so it gets hot as hell and cool in the garage. Is it still good? It looks fine. Just don't want to waste my time.

    Liquid wax vs hard wax, is there a general shelf life?

    Polymers shelf life?

    Guess a general rule of thumb would be nice? I imagine the best course of action is to store that stuff in the house where it is climate controlled.

    Thoughts?

    I have this same wax along with many others and for me, as long as they haven't separated they should be fine. If you're doubtful, just try some out on a fender to make sure it performs ok.

    Since AG is the distributor / manufacturer, could somebody from AG offer some input? Thanks

    Geez. I have a jar of Souveran that's over 10 years old. Works just as good now as I did when I bought it.

    I keep my waxes in my basement to extend shelf life.

    Good to know, where do you store it and is it climate controlled?

    Paste waxes are pretty bulletproof. It's the liquid products that have more of a tendency to grow stuff in them, or break down from age or biological growth.

    Re: Souveran Shelf Life

    I have Liquid Souveran going on 2+ years now. I keep them on a shelf on the unfinished side of my basement. I don't track durability since I use it more as a topper but I haven't seen anything that causes me to consider dumping it.
